but also provides data on wind direction and velocity. A radiosonde that provides this information is technically known as a rawindsonde, but that’s such an awkward formulation that the devices ...

In Aug. 2024, a team of NASA researchers and partners gathered in Missoula, to test new drone-based technology for localized ...

With an uptick in turbulence events in recent years, he said radiosonde data “helps us better analyze areas of potential wind shear and how the jet stream looks.” Jet streams are fast-flowing ...

The researchers compared the data obtained using the drones with routine radiosonde data gathered nearby using weather balloons. Notably, air temperature, humidity, and wind speed measurements ...

Lofted beneath a weather balloon into the stratosphere, a radiosonde transmits a wealth of data back to the ground before returning on a parachute after the balloon bursts. [Mark] had his eyes on ...

Independent confirmation of this conclusion comes from radiosonde observations 6 that extend the temperature analysis to include additional data sets and the seasonal dependence of the ENSO influence.
